Driving games or even sports games is generally not my thing. But this one stuck. IMHO a technical marvel, and gameplay that rewards patience.

This is the one of the best games for Atari ST ever! This runs a little bit smoother than on Amiga 500, so we can consider Atari ST version to be the best among 16-bit computers of the early 90's. I played this game for hours with my best friend back in time :-)

10/10 ia right. This is one of the absolute best games on the ST.

The ST/STE version was also running very well and smoother on the Falcon30! This confirms that the game has been coded ver properly... Definitely a 10/10 (the season 2 of the championship... OMG...)

This is such an amazing game. Geoff Crammond is a genius. There is nothing else like SCR. That rush of adrenaline and fear as you leave a ramp and launch into the air, unsure if you've carried enough speed - or too much - to land safely. The chassis cracking along the top with each hard landing, and each collision with the CPU car. You can even link 2 ST's for multiplayer. Or an ST linked to an Amiga. The ST game runs a bit smoother than on a standard Amiga, so it's the best version. The Commodore 64 game is great too. Seriously, the scores here are ridiculous. 7.8 average? This is a 10/10 game all day long.
